Philips AVENT SCF330 User Manual page 9

Note: Do not worry if your milk does not flow immediately. Relax and continue pumping. Repositioning
the breast pump on your breast from time to time can help stimulate milk flow.
Do not continue pumping for more than 5 minutes at a time if you do not succeed in
expressing any milk. Try to express at another time during the day. If the process becomes
very uncomfortable or painful, stop using the pump and consult your breastfeeding advisor.
7 On average, you need to pump for 10 minutes to express 60-125ml (2-4fl oz) of breast
milk. However, this is just an indication and varies from woman to woman.
8 When you have finished expressing, carefully remove the breast pump from your breast
and unscrew the bottle or breast milk container from the pump body ready for feeding/
storage. Clean the other used parts of the breast pump according to the instructions in
the chapter 'Cleaning and sterilising'.
Note: If you regularly express more than 125ml per session, you can use a 260ml/9fl oz Philips
AVENT bottle or 240ml/8fl oz Philips AVENT storage cup to prevent overfilling and spillage.
after use
Storing breast milk
Only store breast milk collected with a sterile pump.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge (not in the door) for up to 48 hours. Expressed milk
should be refrigerated immediately. If you store milk in the fridge to add to during the day, only
add milk that has been expressed into a sterilised bottle or breast milk container.
Breast milk can be stored in the freezer for up to three months as long as it is kept in either
sterilised bottles fitted with a sterilised screw ring and sealing disc or in sterilised storage cups
with a sterilised lid. Clearly label the bottle or storage cup with the date and time of expression
and use older breast milk first.
If you intend to feed your baby with the expressed breast milk within 48 hours, you can store the
breast milk in the fridge in an assembled Philips AVENT bottle or storage cup:
1 Unscrew the bottle or storage cup and remove it from the pump body.
2 Assemble a sterilised teat and screw ring onto the bottle or storage cup according to the
separate instructions provided with the bottle or storage cup.
3 Seal the teat with the dome cap.
